This poignant tribute by Pink Floyd reflects on the rise and fall of a brilliant, yet troubled individual. The lyrics evoke the memory of someone who once radiated like the sun but now bears a haunting emptiness, symbolized by "black holes in the sky." Caught between childhood innocence and the pressures of stardom, this person’s journey is marked by premature ambition and subsequent disillusionment. Despite being battered by life's challenges, they are encouraged to continue shining with their unique light. Ultimately, this song is a melancholic ode to lost brilliance and enduring spirit. #Tribute #StardomStruggles #EnduringSpirit
Shine On You Crazy Diamond
Lyrics
Remember when you were young
You shone like the Sun
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Now there's a look in your eyes
Like black holes in the sky
Shine on, you crazy diamond
You were caught in the crossfire
Of childhood and stardom
Blown on the steel breeze
Come on, you target for faraway laughter
Come on, you stranger, you
Legend, you martyr, and shine
You reached for the secret too soon
You cried for the Moon
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Threatenеd by shadows at night
And exposed in the light
Shinе on (Shine on)
You crazy diamond (You crazy diamond)
Well, you wore out your
Welcome with random precision
Rode on the steel breeze
Come on, you raver, you seer of visions
Come on, you painter, you
Piper, you prisoner, and shine
Nobody knows where you are
How near or how far
Shine on you crazy diamond
Pile on many more layers
And I'll be joining you there
Shine on you crazy diamond
And we'll bask in the
Shadow of yesterday's triumph
And sail on the steel breeze
Come on, you boy child, you winner and loser
Come on, you miner for truth and delusion
And shine!
